Abstract: The beds of mountainous and submountainous rivers are formed by coarsegravels,often with large bed elements,such as cobbles and boulders.Longitudinal slopes of these rivers amount to about several percents andrelative submergence R/k。(R =hydraulic radius,k。=effective boundary roughness)is considerably smaller than that in alluvial rivers and it mayeven be smaller than one(in case of boulders protruding the water surface).
